From daniel at coder.com Tue May 13 14:06:23 2008 From: daniel at coder.com (Daniel R. Allen) Date: Tue, 13 May 2008 17:06:23 -0400 (EDT) Subject: [kw-pm] kw.pm Meeting this Thursday! Message-ID: KW Perl Mongers is meeting this Thursday, at 7:30pm. I will be talking about Moose, an object system for perl5 that has received attention for being stable, reasonably simple to learn, and reasonably powerful. It's described as "a postmodern object system" by the author, after Larry Wall's description of Perl as a postmodern language- incorporating the best parts of other languages. Moose includes useful features of Perl 6, SmallTalk, Ruby, OCaml and so on. *The location is different: we're back in Davis Centre room 3023* See http://kw.pm.org/faq.html for maps. As usual, pizza's provided by $anonymous; by 4pm Thursday please put your name on the pizza-list for ordering purposes: http://kw.pm.org/wiki/PizzaList
